The image of the candle can be obtained at a distance of 4 feet behind the plane mirror.
The total distance between the object and its image will be 4 + 4= 8 ft.
The nature of image formed by a plane mirror is virtual and erect and the size of the image formed by a plane mirror is equal to that of the object.
The image formed in a plane mirror is at the same distance behind the mirror as the object is in front of the mirror.
The image and object are at equal distances from a plane mirror but they are on opposite sides of the plane mirror.
